Adam & Sarah -- Scottsboro AL Engagement and Wedding Photographer in Huntsville AL

Adam and Sarah are most definitely in love.  From the way Sarah looks at her future groom to the way Adam brushes the hair from his bride-to-be's face, they're so obviously, wonderfully smitten with each other.  I couldn't have loved more their downtown Huntsville engagement session -- a beautiful blend of urban Autumn flair, sweet lace, and brilliant blue skies -- nor could I be more excited about photographing their wedding next May.  It's going to be a celebration for the ages: handsome groom, beautiful bride, and gorgeous details galore.  Ah, yes, the sappy romantic in me can't get enough of these two.

Just look at that stunner of an engagement ring!

Natural Beauty -- Huntsville, Alabama Nature Portrait Photographer

Patti is a true, natural beauty.  She's been a follower of mine (on Facebook) for quite some time, so when she finally asked me to do a session for her, I was positively giddy with gladness.   She wanted to celebrate her 60th birthday with her first ever portrait photography, and I was more than happy to oblige.  We headed out to Hayes Nature Preserve in the the Hampton Cove area, to spend a lovely afternoon amid beloved books, peaceful solitude, and the natural beauty of shade trees and late summer grasses.  Patti, a tall, silver-haired goddess, took to the camera like a swan to water;  she was a pure joy to work with.

Happy 60th Birthday, you gorgeous woman, you!

Mother & Daughter -- Huntsville, AL lifestyle family photographer

Jenni is a dear -- dear! -- friend of mine.  Over the last year and a half we've gone from "nice to meet you" to working as business partners on weddings as Tulip & Thistle Wedding Photography.  She's an amazing photographer who has allowed me to sit-in and absorb her editing techniques, shared photography tips, and don't even get me started on the amount of cheerleading she's supplied me with.  She's pretty much just an amazing woman -- clever, witty, honest, and down-to-earth.  I thank my lucky stars to have stumbled into our friendship.

Of course I was more than happy to do a few head shots for her!  I even invited her beautiful daughter along for a few Mommy & Me captures, just outside Huntsville in the heart of Madison, Alabama.  It was definitely one of the highlights of my summer photography experiences.  Gorgeous sunlight, wildflowers, that earthy Secret Garden vibe -- and two beauties for the price of one!

Gilliana's Sparta Tennessee Senior Session -- Scottsboro, AL Senior Photographer

When I was 17 years old and looking forward to my own high school graduation day, I wanted to grow up and be Gilliana;  I just didn't know it yet.  Tall and graceful, with an elegance that far surpasses her years, Gilliana is The Real Deal.  She's principled -- a vegan, passionate about the environment and animals -- clever, delightfully goofy, a connoisseur of food (with an eight-year plan to achieve her dreams of culinary mastery),  and she's kind.  She loves her family, loves her cats, and loves a good plate of fettuccine Alfredo.  If Gilliana is what the future can look forward to, we are in for a real treat.

Oh yes, and she's gorgeous.

I couldn't be more thrilled to have met and photographed this young woman, endowed with poise, intelligence, strength, and talent.  I present to you The Class of 2016: put on your shades y'all -- 'cause it's bright in here.

All of my photography sessions include one Signature Art Edit.  Gilliana needed to be a fairy -- so I made her a fairy, just for fun.

Boots & Sunflowers -- Huntsville, AL Wedding Photographer

Such a beautiful wedding season, this glorious time of October.  My own anniversary is the 24th of the month, and I'm a huge (Huge!) fan of Autumn skies and day-glow leaves and pumpkins, bonfires -- and sunflowers.  So when Anna and Joshua enlisted me to photograph their country wedding -- replete with lace, boots, and giant, cheery sunflowers, set for a bright, October afternoon in Guntersville, Alabama -- I was in raptures of delight.  And oh what a perfectly perfect day it was!

Extra-special thanks to Jenni of Jenni M. Photography for covering the pre-reception detail shots and for helping me with some extra Photoshop post-editing.

Wishing Mr. and Mrs. Walters many, many happy Octobers!
